I'm not a php guy, or a MVC guy, or really anything in their ecosystem... but I will say Taylor Otwell and his team do an amazing job at their little slice of the developer world. Again, not my cup of tea but we need to give credit where credit is due, they are doing a great job. "unmatched" is hyperbole obv, but the sentiment is fair

You are right that my comment could have been more helpful.

My reply and point is Laravel has grown far beyond a simple PHP Framework.

The entire ecosystem of various Laravel related tools can solve a majority of problems for developers and businesses.

I don't know if I agree with GP but this is a subjective claim, no? You can pull out a bunch of metrics by which Laravel surpasses other frameworks, and some where they don't, but the call is going to either side by licking a thumb and sticking it in the air.

What is your calculation?
